What reading level is Italian Fantasies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Matthew Arnold's gibe of the " magnified non-natural man " is groundless. I do not become a magnified non-natural dog because I have attributes in common with my terrier. The God of the- ology is already divested of man's matter ; deflate Him likewise of man's spirit, and what remains ? In robbing their Deity of all human traits the de-anthropomorphic philosophers have overshot the mark and reduced Him to a transcendental nullity who can neither be comprehended by His creatures nor comprehend t...hem. Or if they allow Him ideas and passions, they neutralise and sterilise them in a frenzy of scholastic paradox. " Amas, nee cestuas^"" cries St. Augustine, " zelas et securus es ; pcenitet te et non doles; irasceris et tranquiUus e«. " God repents, but without regret ; He is angr}^ but perfectly tranquil. To evade the limitations of any attribute we endow Him at the same time with its opposite, as who should say a white negro. But such violent assaults upon the unthinkable yield no prize either of understanding or of satisfaction.
